Tori Spence, a member of the River City Racers Speed Skating Club, set a new provincial record with a time of 2:15.66 in the 1500m at the Oval Invitational Long Track Competition in Calgary over the weekend. She also raced to season best times in the 500 and 3000m events.
In action closer to home her sister Sara Spence set three new personal bests at the October Chill Short Track event held in Kamloops this weekend. Her personal bests came in the 500m, 1000m and 1500m events. Anneke Pederson, also of the Kamloops River City Racers, set personal best times in the 500m and 1500m events. Margaret Jean Willis, 5 years of age, and Matej Pederson, 9 years, came first in their respective divisions. Tim Mburu, Eric Spence, Alexander, and Delray Willis established new times in each of the distances they raced as their competition was held on a 100m radius track rather than the traditional 111m track.
Next up for the racers is BC Cup #1 at which Anneke Pederson, Josie, Sara and Eric Spence have all qualified to compete.
